From YouTube: Teaching GitHub Flow with LEGO and Arduino - GitHub Satellite 2017

Description

Presented by:
Alexander Mann-Wahrenberg
Senior Staff Software Engineer, Continental Automotive

Within the next months 500+ engineers of our embedded software development spread across eight locations world wide need to learn how to use git, GitHub (Enterprise) and GitHub-Flow. But how to convey a common understanding to this heterogenous group consisting of software, electrical and mechanical engineers and project managers? We need to downsize the reality, transform it to a common denominator without losing the important aspects.

We’ve developed a training for that: First nuts&bolts of git with real LEGO blocks. Then a simulation game covering a complete round-trip of continuous deployment in conjunction with Scrum: Up to thirty participants contribute software changes to an Arduino car model through a deployment pipeline with unit tests, integration tests, hardware-in-the-loop teststand in order to realize the customer’s new requirements.

At Satellite 2017, attendees came to exchange cutting edge practices on how to bring together the people and tools you need to build great software. Watch the recordings to find out what GitHub's been working on, and hear how other teams use the GitHub ecosystem to customize the way they work.

We'll be getting together again in San Francisco on October 10th-12th for GitHub Universe. We hope you'll join us for three days filled with the creativity and curiosity of the largest software community in the world.
